Nothing compares. It's not just the service, tastes or the whole dining experience.
The shop front is humble and intriguing for newcomers not knowing what to expect from an eatery in downtown Gzira .

I have been to this restaurant on 5 occasions and every time it gets better and better. To start with the food is not just up there with the best in Malta but the best I have eaten anywhere.

I would definately go again. One...
